Towards autonomous robot-assisted transcatheter heart valve implantation: in vivo teleoperation and phantom validation of AI-guided positioning.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive procedure in which a transcatheter heart valve (THV) is implanted within the patient's diseased native aortic valve. The procedure is increasingly chosen even for intermediate-risk and younger patients, as it combines complication rates comparable to open-heart surgery with the advantage of being far less invasive. Despite its benefits, challenges remain in achieving accurate and repeatable valve positioning, with inaccuracies potentially leading to complications such as THV migration, coronary obstruction, and conduction disturbances (CD). The latter often requires a permanent pacemaker implantation as a costly and life-changing mitigation. Robotic assistance may offer solutions, enhancing precision, standardization, and reducing radiation exposure for clinicians. This article introduces a novel solution for robot-assisted TAVI, addressing the growing need for skilled clinicians and improving procedural outcomes. We present an
